Wed, 08 Nov 2017 00:01:01 +0000https://www.codenewbie.org/basecs/1Our first episode introduces you to the world of binary, and how it relates to bits and bytes. Binary is the foundation of computer science. We give you a beginner-friendly breakdown of how to count in binary (with some fun counting challenges you can join in on!), how it relates to bits and bytes, and why it's important for us to know as developers. Based on Vaidehi Joshi's first blog post, "Bits, Bytes, Building with Binary."Binary is the foundation of computer science.
